Activity of GlyPerA is based on the antimicrobial properties of Hydrogen Peroxide, which is widely used in food production and medical fields, as an antiseptic and disinfecting agent.

Besides the fact that Hydrogen Peroxide is generally recognized as a safe (GRAS) substance, its frequent use as disinfectant in high concentrations is not desirable as it may lead to oxidative stress of the cell and damaging mitochondria.

Few years ago, at the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics Prof. Teymuras Kurzchalia and his team discovered properties of Glycolate and Glycine to neutralize harsh oxidative stress on mitochondria by different oxidative agents.

GlyPerA™ antimicrobial solution, that is created based on this discovery, effectively destroys viruses and bacterial outside of the cell, while glycine stops oxidative stress inside the cell and protects mitochondria.

Our solution has the ability to prevent infection of oral cavity and throat with bacteria and viruses without even minor contradictions and side effects.

It is interesting that GlyPerA™’s formulation was created based on the latest work of T. Kurzchalia’s laboratory on cryptobiosis, so-called phenomena of “Hidden life”. Dried and frozen nematodes are in cryptobiosis for tens of thousands of years after which they return to life. Nematodes in cryptobiosis protect themselves from oxidative stress. The same principal based on glycine is realized in GlyPerA™.
